Hello,

Is it possible to feed to gmsh a surface in parametric form?

The surface is of the kind:
x = a*cos(Theta) - eps * exp( 10(a*Cos(Theta))^2 )
y = y
z = b*sin(Theta) - eps * exp( 10(a*Cos(Theta))^2 )

with Theta in (0,Pi/2), y = (-L, L). The objective is to mesh such surface
with a structured quadrilateral mesh.

I am aware of the answer
http://geuz.org/pipermail/gmsh/2006/002004.html
Have things changed in gmsh since then?

If not, are there alternatives to obtain the same effect?

Thanks in advance
